I want to deposit metal oxide on nickel foam by the hydrothermal method in teflon lined stainless steel container. So by this method deposition takes place all over the substrate, then how I can do the electrochemical characterization?
Ni mesh and Ni foam should be sonicated in acetone solution for 10 min, washed with distilled water, and then dried in an oven at 80 °C for 2 h to remove the excess water. then can perform the electrochemical characterization, CV, GCD, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), more details in the following references;
